THE CITY OF NORTH MIAMI BREAKS GROUND ON STREETSCAPE ENHANCEMENT PROJECTS

North Miami, FL – 3/22/2017

Thursday, March 23, the city of North Miami
will host the first of five groundbreaking ceremonies, marking commencement of
several streetscape improvement projects citywide. The projects will include
street resurfacing, repainting lane markers, leveling, installing and repairing
sidewalks, among other enhancements. Currently scheduled projects are slated
for completion in early summer.

In FY 2017, the city of North Miami allocated
$500,000 from its ½ Cent Transportation Surtax and the Local Option Gas Tax to
fund these projects. Additional streetscape improvements funded through these
sources are projected for late 2017.
